.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBgss_create_empty_oid_set()\fR function creates an object-identifier set
containing no object identifiers to which members may be subsequently added
using the \fBgss_add_oid_set_member\fR(3GSS) function.  These functions can be
used to construct sets of mechanism object identifiers for input to
\fBgss_acquire_cred\fR(3GSS).
.SH PARAMETERS
.sp

.RS 16n
Mechanism-specific status code

.sp
.ne 2
.na
\fB\fIoid_set\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 16n
Empty object identifier set. The function will allocate the
\fBgss_OID_set_desc\fR object, which the  application must free after use with
a call to \fBgss_release_oid_set\fR(3GSS).

.SH ERRORS
.sp
.LP
The \fBgss_create_empty_oid_set()\fR function may return the following status
codes:
.sp
.ne 2

.ne 2
.na
\fB\fBGSS_S_FAILURE\fR\fR
.ad
.RS 18n
The underlying mechanism detected an error for which no specific \fBGSS\fR
status code is defined.  The mechanism-specific status code reported by means
of the \fIminor_status\fR parameter details the error condition.
